Your Website Isn’t a Brochure

It’s a Conversation

(So Let’s Rewrite the Script)

Typewriter - write something

"A good website doesn’t talk at people...it talks with them." - Shannon


What We Mean by “Not a Brochure”

Your website shouldn’t feel like a glossy tri-fold collecting dust online. It should be a dynamic, engaging conversation that moves visitors to action. That’s what we mean when we say your website is not a brochure.


Why Brochure-Style Sites Miss the Mark

They’re usually:

  • Static

  • Overloaded with jargon

  • Focused on the company, not the user

This setup doesn’t serve modern buyers who want clarity, speed, and relevance.


What a Website Should Do in 2025

All words that mean trust
  • Guide, Not Just Inform Websites today must guide visitors to a next step—schedule a call, download a freebie, or browse services.

  • Build Trust Through Clarity Think StoryBrand-style clarity: what do you do, who is it for, and what should someone do next?

  • Capture Interest Fast Using strong headlines, benefit-forward copy, and strategic CTAs to reduce bounce.
